urgent help needed! 53 yr old Brit
I could really use some advice… my marriage has broken down & I have no money, I’m on a dependent pass so unable to work. My wife I feel has been planning this for months, she is accusing me of things that simply aren’t true, she’s stopped all access to any funds, she wants me out, I have no family in the uk to help me, I have no savings, I was on medication for anxiety & depression but she stopped & refused to pay for the prescription months ago, I don’t know what to do I don’t even have money for a bus & even if I did where can I go? Please someone advise me coz right now I have zero options Many Thanks

Hopefully either they can help, or someone else can think of other options

This is sad situation. recommend consular assistance and since you are on dependent visa , the healthcare is not free for you. You should try to move to your home country/city where you get free/cheap access to healthcare and work on your health first.

Perhaps if you regularly attend a church they may provide advice. There maybe other charitable groups to offer you advice. At least you appear to be able to access the internet.

I believe one Dependent Pass holder (for every EP holder) can apply for a Letter of Consent in order to work in Singapore, which would then allow you to seek employment and earn enough money to finance your trip home.
Would your wife allow you to stay long enough for that to happen? Also, is she (and/or yourself) seeking a divorce? That might be easier whilst you are still in one place, so if that is the case then maybe she should allow you to stay long enough to complete everything and purchase your flights out of Singapore?
